Description

G418 disulfate is used for selection and maintenance of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells transfected with a iNOS promoter construct and neomycin resistance gene. Optimal concentrations for selection and maintenance vary by cell lines.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

General description
• G418 sulfate (geneticin) is an aminoglycoside antibiotic isolated from Micromonospora rhodorangea
• G418 is bacteriostatic that prevents polypeptide formation by inhibiting the elongation step of polypeptide synthesis
Applications
• G418 sulfate can be used for the selection of genetically engineered cells in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes
• Laboratory-grade for applications such as biochemistry
RUO – Research Use Only
